Peeta, you said at the interview you’d had a crush on me forever. When did forever start? Oh, let’s see. I guess the first day of school. We were five. You had on a red plaid dress and your hair...it was in two braids instead of one. My father pointed you out when we were waiting to line up." Your father? Why?" He said, ‘See that little girl? I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner.'" What? You’re making that up!" No, true story. And I said, 'A coal miner? Why did... Suzanne Collins

Charles Dickens quote: "Then tell Wind and Fire where to stop," returned madame; "but..."
Then tell Wind and Fire where to stop," returned madame; "but don't tell me. Charles Dickens
Everybody has noticed the way cats stop and loiter in a half-open door. Hasn't everyone said to a cat: For heavens sake why don't you come in? With opportunity half-open in front of them, there are men who have a similar tendency to remain undecided between two solutions, at the risk of being crushed by fate abruptly closing the opportunity. The overprudent, cats as they are, and because they are cats, sometimes run more danger than the bold Victor Hugo
Georgia O'Keeffe quote: "I'm frightened all the time. But I never let it stop me. Never!"
I'm frightened all the time. But I never let it stop me. Never! Georgia O'Keeffe
Hillary Clinton quote: "If we only stopped to listen to them for a few minutes, kids..."
If we only stopped to listen to them for a few minutes, kids could tell us that we move too fast, for their good and ours. Hillary Clinton
Please stop putting quotes from Nietzsche at the end of your emails. Five years ago you were laughing your guts out over American Pie 2. What — suddenly you’ve magically turned into Noam Chomsky? Doug Coupland
Buddy had taken to Gillian in a major way. He thumped his leg, the way rabbits in love always do. He paid no attention to her frown, or the fact that she waved her hands at him, as if he were a cat to be shooed away. He trailed behind her into the living room. When Gillian stopped, Buddy sat down on the rug and looked up at her."You quit this right now," Gillian said. She wagged her finger and glared at him, but Buddy stayed where he was. He had big brown eyes that were rimmed with pink. He... Alice Hoffman
Is it still there?" I asked, staring at his head, bent over, as he wedged the stethoscope beneath my left breast. And then, before I could stop myself, "Does it sound broken? Jennifer Weiner

Charles de Lint
Robert A. Heinlein quote: "Damnit! Nationalism should stop at the stratosphere!"
Damnit! Nationalism should stop at the stratosphere! Robert A. Heinlein
Why had he done it? Why couldn't it just not have happened? Why didn't they have time-travel, why couldn't he go back and stop it happening? Ships that could circumnavigate the galaxy in a few years, and count every cell in your body from light-years off, but he wasn't able to go back one miserable day and alter one tiny, stupid, idiotic, shameful decision... Iain Banks
